Geordies on film
The trailer for Goal! The Dream Begins, the first film in a trilogy about a poor Mexican-American who becomes a footballing sensation, can be seen here. My fearless prediction: everything that takes place away from the football field will suck like a Dirt Devil, but it will be worth seeing for the action scenes - and because of the EPL team involved.

For some reason this movie was shown on a flight I took from Boston to LA back in March. I think I was the only person to recognize it.
It was fucking fantastic, and the scenes away from the football field weren’t as bad as you think they would be. It’s actually a pretty moving story about the illegal immigrant experience as well as being a classic “boys own” footballing story.
